Redskins Halftime Takeaways: Offense sputters against Jets defense
On paper, the Jets pass defense looked like a good match for the Redskins. But the results of the first half said otherwise.
At the half, the Washington Redskins trail the New York Jets by a score of 20-3. It’s been a familiar story for the Washington squad: The offense has sputtered, and the New York Jets’ offense, led by Sam Darnold, has dominated the time of possession battle.
Before the game, it was inferred that the Redskins would open up the offense to rookie quarterback Dwayne Haskins a bit. In his first start, against the Buffalo Bills, the Redskins were hesitant to take the training wheels off of the Haskins-led offense, and as a result, the unit did not produce up to par.
